Also that hilariously awful scene of Vinnie and Evan standing in front of a tree with big stupid grins on their faces and loud distortion, with half of Slendy poking out from behind the tree.

That one was obviously fake.

If what had come out was Slenderman noises (audio distortion, children laughing, that sort of thing), and if the clip hadn't been focused entirely on that, I'd say it's genuine. However, since the entire point of the clip is "Well, looks like there's a Halloween Noises CD in there", it's obviously supposed to be part of their fake Slenderman thing.

I'm aware, but since there (unless I've missed something) hasn't been any real rhythm to how and when Evan gets all HABIT-y, I don't think it's that odd to treat it as just a random part of Evan as a whole. If I have a friend who randomly causes everything around him to explode, I will probably avoid him at all times in order to stay safe, since there's no way of really telling when it'll happen. But I may just be a bad friend. Embarassed

I haven't rewatched the series in a while, but I don't recall ever really being confused as to what instances of Slenderman were and weren't real, due mostly to the points already pointed out. Are there any highly contested instances worth discussing?

Yeah, I agree with Etrocal, it seemed in hindsight like it was just them fucking with us. If they do another livestream to answer questions again, though, I'd be more then willing to posit this question.


It could have been them fucking with us.

However, two minutes before, in the same video, a Slenderman who may have been Daniel walked by and did the head-twist and the lights shut off. (Thinking back, it's likely Daniel.)

And thirty seconds prior, when they were discussing the workout machines, a mysterious shadow is seen in the background, and at first it looks like the shadow of another support pole...until it walks off. Evan notices.

I think the radio malfunction is Slendy.
I've always assumed (And yes, I know what they say about assumptions) that the Slender Man that walks by right before the lights go out was Daniel, mostly because the way it popped it's head into frame was kinda silly looking, and because the guys didn't really seem surprised by the lights going out. However, you're right about the shadowy figure appearing in the background, and only Evan noticing. With the blatantly fake Slendies, they always made a point of acting as if they didn't notice, and yet with that one, Evan did. However, the shadow was a bit short compared to most other Slender Sightings in the series.

Then perhaps it wasn't Slendy's shadow, but an inHABITed person, going after Evan?

One of the things about shadows is that depending on how far you are from the light source, the height can change. Slendy may have just been standing closer to the light than we though.

-shudder-
All this talk of the earlier entries makes me want to watch the entire series again. Maybe there is something hidden there that was relatively mundane on the first watch through, but may have a different meaning in light of the recent videos.

You know, i just realized something after looking at the cystw's twitter. about that comment "Take solace in the rain, my children. It only means I'm near"...idk if its just because the cameras could get wet (tho theres always waterproofing/umbrellas) or other reasons, but...i looked up the tweet converation it was from, the one with slendy and habit

■Take solace in the rain, my children. It only means I'm near.
■DISREGARD THE BANTER
■Oh, how pleasant it is to be torn.
■IT IS I WHO inHABITS THIS SANCTUARY.
■Oh, a classic power struggle is it?
A few hours later the following tweets were sent:

■I URGE YOU TO LEAVE.
■They are already mine. Good Luck.

it made me think of what the boys said about being "damaged goods"

and how in the begining of the trials, habit mentioned how slendy may be "BENEVOLENT" or "malevolent"....and someone else mentioning how slendy may see himself as their guardian and "doesnt like to share" the children he takes/follows...

what if they arent working together, but the hybrids are caught between them CLASHING? like in this tweet convo.

■"SURPRISE, FOOLS! JUST DROPPING IN FOR A MOMENT TO CLEAR SOMETHING UP: YOU REALLY THINK THE BIG GUY AND SNOOPY TYPE THESE THEMSELVES? PFFT."
■JUST ME AND THE BIG GUY, BUMPIN' SHOULDERS, YA' KNOW? YANKING CHAINS, RUBBIN' ELBOWS-
■Go play your little game, children. Nothing more to see here.

That slendy is trying to save people, but stop habit himself. The tweets also mention the "game" and other things relavent now.. we really do need to go back and look at all this again.

Interesting thought. So perhaps Slender Man and HABIT used to have a deal, but now HABIT is trying to negotiate a release. (We've been talked about this before of course, but I haven't seen it laid out like this...)

I guess it all depends on who the non-caps tweeter is, then.

I really hope that I'm doing this right, as this is my first time ever posting in a forum. :/ If not, mods, please feel free to delete this and I'll happily stick to lurking around, as per usual. xD

Anyway, in response to WhiteRabbit... has it ever been speculated that the one typing in noncaps is possibly Dr. Corenthal??? Maybe? Or has it been confirmed that that's definitely Slender Man or...a proxy of his or something?

Habit called him the "big guy" , and usualy means slendy when he does, and him and slendly both seem to (if you take the possessed comment by milo as slendy talking) call corenthal, "doctor".

i think that maybe, rather then stalking prey, slendy may be trying to gather strength, which it also seems habit is doing as well. kind of like gathering the pieces to a "game" that habit has joined in on. That slendy seemed to capture one of habit's pieces (evan, possibly why hes handcuffed in candleverse).

I till think The Big Guy is Corenthal, or maybe Corenthal posing as Slenderman... still, it's an indicator that somebody is looking after the kids.

Anonymousity.... not sure why you linked Steph's art there... but looking back at that with current knowledge sure is interesting. Does her shadow in that upper piece look like an evil rabbit to anyone else? Evil rabbit says HABIT To me... but why would she in particular be being plagued by HABIT? And the composition, (making him her own shadow) implies inHABITation to me.

The second piece with the red eye and the blood makes me think of Evan for some reason, though I have no evidence for that.

Now I'm starting to wonder if HABIT killed her family on Slender's orders.

"He told me to go north..."

Well, I like to point people into the direction and see if they make the same assumptions as I do. Wink

Two of the images feature eyes prominently, one is a guy with a zippo-mouth... "The Smiling Man"...? HABIT had the Joker card in the play-deck that was in the chest, right?

Did Steph ever say Slenderman in her post about her finding her dead family?

I'd go as far and say that the picture is a straight depiction of HABIT how he appears to the inHABITed (check out the words written all around his face, Violence - Insanity - Hate etc. - plus, he wears an EMH-wristband).

Actually, if HABIT would ever pop up in video, blood red shirt and red tie, it would be glorious.
